Persona X SAW
Did you guys not play Persona 4? Where pretty much every female character except Ai is easily pleased by you and pretty much worships the ground your character walks on?

Their ultimate weapon, enslaving the populace with 23 hours of characters wandering around accomplishing nothing of real value.

The P5 characters have witnessed what happened to the P4 cast and are desperate to escape that same fate of constantly being rehashed and trotted out and milked.
Sounds like most of the Slink grinding to me!

That really depends on how you handle your social links
Also the female Persona 4 cast do not equal "every female in the series".
No.
They will turn the children into L'Cie, forcing them to wander hallways endlessly.

I was really disappointed by PersonaQ. This was literally a nightmare for Persona fans. It is on 3DS, was a continuation of Person3/4, and is supposedly some sort of childrens' game.
I was happy with what we saw of Persona Ultimax Suplex Hold, although I'm a tad disappointed that we won't have it on PS4 with Xrd Sign.
I laughed my ass off at Danching all Night. I am ready for Swag Swag Narukami v. Funky Student dance battles.
I'm excited for Persona 5, but I really wanna see characters so that I can draw all of the fan art. None the less, I think I have some ideas concerning theme:
So we know that the theme of Persona 5 is going to have something to do with imprisonment. Considering the trends of society over the past five years, our original guesses often had a lot to do with cellular technology and the massive proliferation of the internet. I think that the original speculation wasn't far off, and that Persona 5 is going to deal with the way that which we are shackled down by our fascination with the internet. We spend so much time living vicariously through other people. We come home, we sit at our computers, and we watch other people do things that we could be doing ourselves. We are too afraid to unshackle ourselves from our ability to experience things second hand, so that we can live for ourselves.
That's just my speculation, I hope you guys like it.
Edit:
I hope not... I'm alright with Narukami's edgy, Mexican cousin, but he doesn't look like a very interesting character...

Waifu's have great value my friend.
To be fair, that's every character, not just the girls.
What a horrible fate!
I am totally interested in Persona Q however. That is gonna be a must buy for my 3DS if it's the Etrian Odyssey team.
Nay.. its already confirmed Sho wearing Yasogami uniform anyway.

How exactly? Just because of the art style? lol
Yeah, Yosuke himself is the biggest worshiper of the P4 MC, for example.

I think it'll deal a lot with how we're completely dependent on technology for our social connections. And why I think S-links will be more plot important in this one, is that they're the attempt to break away from the prison that is digital reliance. I think the same can be said with the gathering of information, so if it's another "Investigation team" type of group, they'll have to use natural deduction and actual investigation rather than just googling that shit.
That really depends on how you handle your social links
Mitsuru's spine turns to jelly as soon as you go down the lovers path with her. I don't know about Yukari. The other female interests in P3 seem eager to approach your character and 'oh whoops dating-like scenarios frequently happen to us. you're so cool'

No.
- Q is a spin-off, it is not a continuation of P3/P4.
- Persona is already a series for children.
Heyo_Rockbreaker

More or less. The whole game seems so out of character for Atlus, it's the only thing that comes to mind.
Would you consider it a game for children? I always thought that Persona's themes were a bit to mature for a younger audience.
Pretty sure in a scene where he's fighting junpei he ended up pulling tresmegistos out somehow, so my guess is maybe he uses his opponent's persona? (which brings up mirror match problems). I dunno maybe I'm hallucinating things because of all the persona announcements going on frying my brains.
Wow. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

It is literally a reskinned Etrian Odyssey title.

I don't think the 3ds game will be a kids game, the Etrian Odyssey team is making it, and while their art style is chibi like that, their games are usually harder than Persona games at least, and much more hardcore.

I like you're speculation about the theme, it would be cool to see...but why does everyone and their mother think it'll have a techno-centric theme? I mean I'm fine with it, I jus don't understand why, did they say something about technology at an interview or something?
also Yu's edgy, Mexican cousin LOL...wut?
Dr. Buni
Member
The game seems to be as "for children" as any other Persona.
And lol no, it doesn't seem out of character for Atlus. Have you ever heard about Etrian Odyssey? If anything, Persona Q will be a VERY hardcore Persona gaem.

No, I definitely, 100% saw a picture where he had his own, distinct Persona.

Keep Sho away from 5. :|
Yes because EO has 3D character models with story sequences and also full on 3d battles where the characters are shown attacking.
TurnipFritters

They're cheap to produce and sell decently enough.
The point I was making was that "It seems out of character for Atlus" was a stupid comment when it's an EO game.

The technology theme just seems like very a relevant topic at the moment. On the account of the new character, that's what came to mind. How would you describe him?
Anyhow, it seems that I have said something stupid, so I think I'll shut my mouth for a bit.

Yeah, he looks so bad.
